Thanks heavens for XUP
For it was she who reminded me that the 'holiday' of easter is actually a celebration of Ishtar (who is another diety I don't believe in but I like her better than the god the Christians came up with).

It is such a distinct please to read your blog again. I read to the end of the Barbara post. You are the Cobacabana.

Next year in Jerusalem!
when does dustin hoffman show up?
What, Kristianity doesn't have enough blood for you?
I'm in for next Ishtar weekend. I can completely get behind Ishtar.

It's amusingly ironic that you're thanking Heaven.
